Amor de Lacquer: Sinful Colors Canary Yellow

Welcome to another post of Amor de Lacquer….the series all about nail polish and nail care! Send me your requests, suggestions and ideas to Brittany@ClumpsOfMascara.com.

I have gotten a few emails about yellow nail polishes. I have quite a few but the first one that came to mind was Sinful Colors’ Canary Yellow.

First of all, I LOVE yellow polish on brown skin. And not just on my toes as a beautiful summer color. But on my nails on the weekends when I am feeling funky. A few years ago, I would have never worn yellow polish but I am embracing this color even more now.

Here is Canary Yellow in different lighting (no coats).

I konad-ed my pinkie finger; just playing around. I didn’t finish the rest of the nails because that would have been a little too much…..even for me.

Sinful Colors’ can be found at Wal-greens for only $1.99. They aren’t the BEST polishes as they can be a little streaky but for under $2, you won’t catch me complaining. I am almost positive that they contain nasty toxic stuffs i.e. toluene, DHP and formaldehyde. Most of my polishes are “Big 3 Free” so my nose can detect when yucky chemicals are at bay.

But it is a fabulous yellow nonetheless. And I am happy to have it in the my collection of yellow polishes. And I am loving Sinful Colors’ collections. These things pop up randomly and I always manage to catch them on a quick trip to Wal-greens.

Their collection themes are just darling but I wish they would do a better job at updating their website. Grr!

def rock a yellow polish! I have a pic of my Sally Hansen Insta Dry yellow on my page http://myownjudge.blogspot.com/ will have to do a thorough check of walgreen’s by my house next time i’m around – they’ve been slacking recently

I too love that yellow polish!! My nails are yellow also, with a funky design!!

I have about 4 yellow polishes now. Haven’t put any on yet. Solar Power by ChG will be first up to bat.

I feel the same way about the Sinful Colors *wearing a green by them now*. It’s pretty good considering the price. Their website is wackadocious though, for sure.

I´m not sure about yellow np, I think the “funkier” colors I´ve wear are black and navy blue.

Hijabi Apprentice

I would definitely try it now!

Vampy Varnish

Brit, Love the yellow polish on you. I have nyc yellow taxi and the sally hansen one. I will be using these during the spring/summer. I like to only konad my index and ring fingers. You know what would look good if you apply a glittery gold polish on top. I haven’t seen this sinful yellow in my Walgreens did you just get it?

Product Junkie Diva

You certainly love your polish young lady :-). I say that and I just got back to the office after buying a new polish. Didn’t I recently do a post about not buying any more polish?…gee whiz..lolPJD

Nikki–> But of course you would!!

Savvy–> Hmm, I have to try that one from Misa.

Yaya–> I have that yellow too and I absolutely love it. Doesn't leave any streaks AT ALL! It is amazing to say the least. I didn't even know you had a blog. On my Google Reader you go. Gotta support those that support me. Muah!

BBB–> Now you know I need to see a picture of your design, chica. LOL!

TPBG–> I have a green from them called San Fran and I just adore it. I have Solar Power too but I have never tried it. Ain't that somethin'? I clearly have too many polishes if I own some that I've never even tried. Sad!

GS–> Giiiirl, I bet if you tried yellow on your toes, you just may like it. I love navy blue!

Anon–> Thanks for the love. It is greatly appreciated. I purchased my konad accessories here in Orlando. There are several kiosks in the malls and outlets. You can buy them online at http://www.WowSoCool.com. Shipping isn't too bad.

rmcandlelight–> Ohhh, I so need to find my Konad stamper STAT! I can't find it for some reason and don't want to shell out the money for another one. I am definitely going to try the glitter top coat idea. Brilliante! Um, I got that color maybe a month ago. Check Wal-greens Sinful Colors rack by the register in the cosmetics area.

PJD–> Oh goodness…you are just as bad as me, sis. LOL…seriously. Can't wait to read about your new finds!

Kiarah C. W.

Tysh

Your nails are just beautiful, the shape everything, LOL. I wish I had nail beds like that.

Glamouricious

wow i had no idea there where 3 bad ingredients to be found in nail polish. i only knew of DHP.

I did a quick search and Wet N Wild is a cheap one which doesn’t contain! Yay.

What do you think of their nail polishes?

muffin

btw fyi sinful colors do NOT contain formaldehyde, toluene or dbp… all my bottles both new and old say they are free of these!

3 weeks agoby clumpsofmascaraDay 12: Favorite nail polish. Can't pick and won't pick but I LOVE, I mean loooove just about every Cirque polish that I've ever come across.

3 days agoby clumpsofmascaraAbout that illuminating blush stripes palette...sheer perfection! Can be used for highlighting, a blush, a bronzer and eye shadow. Lovin' this @ofracosmetics meetup! #CFLBeautyBlogger #OFRA #makeup

3 weeks agoby clumpsofmascaraYou may be a former #naturalhair blogger if you track your daughter's hair growth and obsess over healthy hair practices. I love her thick and luscious #hair!

1 week agoby clumpsofmascaraDay 22: Beauty Quote - A crazy quote for a #beautyblogger to love but it's true for me. #Makeup is fun. It's art. It can transform and inspire. It can make you feel fierce and confident. But at the end of the day, when I remove the powders, creams, mascara and gloss, I still want to embody that fierceness. So yes @lupitanyongo . I feel you, girl. #LipstickLeague

2 weeks agoby clumpsofmascaraIt's okay, girl. Marvel at what's staring back at you. You are grand. Here I am (attempting) to raise this child and in a lot of ways, she's schooling me.

2 weeks agoby clumpsofmascaraWhen it's 73 degrees outside, you use your mixer outdoors as to not wake the toddler. Because a nap is essential to everyone's sanity. Whipping up some avocado muffins. Who am I? 4 Pinterest projects in a week? Am I my Mother?

2 days agoby clumpsofmascaraI will cry the day this toddler resists naps. It really is the only calm part of my day. And can we get @lupitanyongo on the cover of at least 1 magazine every month? Por favor?

2 weeks agoby clumpsofmascara​Day 17: Favorite Blogger - I'm super behind on this but I'll try to finish the challenge out with a bang. THREE of my favorite bloggers - @byjillee b/c she is a fantastic writer has an incredible story and I look forward to reading all of her posts. She inspires me. @naturalhairrule because she has provided such a wealth of information in an industry that has lacked for so long. She's humble, helpful and is such a light. She makes me want to do better. @verysmartbros make me laugh, think and go, huhhhh? I love reading the Black man's perspective on pop culture, relationships and randomness. #blogging #beautyblogger #LipstickLeague
